JULY:

Saturday 15th July – PIE & PEA SUPPER & AUCTION OF PROMISES- A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the pie and pea supper and auction of Promises on Saturday evening. Thanks to the generosity of some people cooking and preparing our meal, others sharing gifts and skills or resources alongside liberal bidding both in the building and by proxy, the whole evening made £1800 to go towards our anniversary appeal. It was a lovely atmosphere and lots of fun.
